4. The MAC address is used to identify and configure the unit. Fill in the MAC address field with the
address found on the back of MultiNet (for example, 00-20-4A-62-AE-66).
5. Under network settings, enter the IP address, Subnet and Gateway of the MultiNet network
interface. If these values are not known, consult your network administrator.
6. Under port settings, enter the Baud Rate and Parity bit for the MultiNet serial interface.
7. Once the serial and network settings have been entered, click [SAVE] to save the changes. The
message "success saving settings to MultiNet device" will appear in the status window when
complete. Additional devices may be added to the list by following the same procedure.

EXAMPLE: Connecting MultiNet to a PQM
The following steps detail how to use MultiNet in order to connect a PQM to an Ethernet network.
1. Wire COM1 on the back of the PQM to the RS485 terminals on MultiNet. The wiring is detailed in
Figure 2: Typical Configuration. Since for this example short cable runs are used, terminators are
not necessary.
2. Check the settings within the PQM, noting the Baud rate, Parity Bit and Slave Address. For the
sake of this example the values of 19200, none (or N), and 254 will be used for the baud rate,
parity bit, and slave address respectively.
